"It's a pity." Aurora said with a little regret, "I thought I could get more

intuitive information, but now I can only look at the teachers."

Jayne Van Ritter had mixed feelings in his heart.

He didn't regret the death of the rebels, but he couldn't accept the way they

died.

The survivability of the blood race is definitely the best among the Tranquil

Sea countries, not to mention a lot of protection spells attached. In the

absence of obvious trauma, you can't hold on for even an hour. How bad is the

world on the opposite side of the wall?

Even so, the Duke still persistently wanted to cross the black barrier, this

belief really made Jayne shudder.

Does she really know what she is doing?

The mage began to inspect all the experimental objects in public, and the

rigid nobles were no exception. In order to save time, they took out a rare

dagger, and directly chopped the body into several pieces.

"The outside of the deceased was basically intact, with broken fingers and

bruises on the extremities."

"Oh? Check these ** spots."

"Has any of them left any records?"

"No! Everyone's notebooks are empty."

"Either they didn't write a word for an hour, or they died the moment they

crossed the black barrier, or they didn't intend to assist our research at

all."

"Master Kana, you'd better come and see this... These people may not have died

because of the low temperature."

"So that's it... You did a good job, I will inform the Lord Duke."

After listening to the report from the Archmage, Aurora flashed a light in his

eyes, "You mean, they did suffer from extremely low temperatures, but the real

cause of death was suffocation?"

"Yes. These people have swollen throats, blood oozing in multiple places in

their body cavities, and lungs are particularly common. In addition, they are

locked in cages and desperately scratching their throats and iron ropes before

death. This is consistent with the symptoms of people who died of suffocation.

"The latter said succinctly, "So I suspect that something on the other side of

the black barrier inhibits their breathing, or simply lacks the necessary

elements for breathing."

Aurora laughed, "Is there a solution?"

"Of course, please give me a quarter of an hour."

"Very well, let's arrange someone on the next boat."

After the mage turned his head to execute the order, Jayne asked, "What about

the severe cold? The moment the ship was dragged out, it suddenly froze. In

all likelihood, the surrounding water vapor is completely condensed on the

hull. A similar situation is crossing the permafrost. I can see it at the

border, but the speed is far less exaggerated. This means that there is no

temperature on the black barrier. I can't imagine how cold the sea is several

times colder than the permafrost..."

"I don't know either." Aurora said lightly, "but since the autopsy shows that

it is not the primary cause of death, we can put the problem aside first-after

all, we need a bite to eat."

Why can she still laugh?

The commander was incomprehensible, and it was not suitable for humans to go

behind the black barrier, let alone searching for the Holy Grail. Faced with

such an unoptimistic situation, he could not think of any reason to be happy.

"I'm happy because the exploration is not nothing." The Duke seemed to see his

doubts. "Look, we are learning about the unknown a little bit, aren't we? Two

hours ago, we didn't know anything about the back of the black barrier. Now we

have lifted its outer veil. Maybe it won’t be long before we can truly set

foot in that world and become the pioneers of all mankind."

"But…"

"But there is a big price to pay." Aurora shrugged, "I understand that the

cost is high, but this is also the way to go-if the empire does not explore

the unknown, who can afford it? A mission?"

The second ship was also ready soon.

This time, the mages not only put protective spells on several new condemned

prisoners, but also prepared a huge leather balloon for them. It can be seen

that this set of equipment was not prepared in advance-it may have been used

as a life raft or as a cushion for falling, but after a simple modification,

it became a large enough capacity. The "square box" for measuring gas is

connected to the blood family through pipes and glass masks.

"This time the duration is reduced to 30 minutes." Aurora ordered, "Tell these

people that if any of them can come back alive or provide valuable

information, not only will they be saved from death, their The family can also

restore its reputation."

In the long sound of the horn, the second warship was slowly pushed into the

black barrier.

It was close to 6 o'clock in the afternoon, but the sky was still changing,

and it was still gray.

Only the snowflakes drifted more densely.

For Jain, these thirty minutes seemed to be longer than the previous hour.

When the vines slowly dragged the hull out of the hexagonal gate, he couldn't

help but whispered!

"Moon God bless—"

There are obviously people alive on board!

Aurora had already turned over the side of the ship with one stride and jumped

onto the deck of the battleship.

The situation was unexpectedly ideal. Of the three death row prisoners at UU

Reading www.uukanshu.com, two actually survived. Not only that, among the

experimental animals with air sacs, except for the monkeys, all died, a few

mice and most of the insects. All have a rest!

The judges of the mages are not wrong, as long as the problem of suffocation

can be solved, behind the black barrier is not a completely untouchable

forbidden place!

For some reason, Jayne let out a sigh of relief.

The remaining time to open the door is less than an hour, and the Duke should

not organize another exploration.

"Quickly, what do you all see?" Aurora asked a death row inmate.

The latter state is extremely weak, and his eyes are full of fear, "There...

there is nothing... Except for the endless dark night, I... can't see

anything..."

"Is it the sea or the land over there? Are there other living entities? Where

are the demons?" Aurora asked one question after another.

The death row just shook his head blindly, like a puppet.

"Your Excellency, his physical condition is not very good. It is best to be

treated first and then questioned." The mage on the side persuaded him.

"How long can the force field last?" Aurora said solemnly.

"About forty-five minutes," the other party replied, "but this is only an

optimistic estimate. The hourglass cannot accurately measure time, and the

core of the spirit tree may be depleted in advance."

"Enough. Bring in the third ship, this time only enter the black barrier for a

quarter of an hour."

"Yes," the wizard said, "but there is a problem with the test items. There are

no nobles on the death row. The test results for ordinary people are not good.

Should they be replaced by elves?"

"It's not necessary," Aurora took off her mink jacket, "I will go there in

person this time." At this point, she scanned the crowd, "Are you willing to

come with me?"
